It took only 100 seconds for Iker Muniain to hand the hosts the lead after his incredible chip was no match for Marc-André ter Stegen.

The goal is the earliest conceded by Barcelona in the competition since January 28, 2015 (Fernando Torres after 38 seconds in the Vicente Calderón).

But Barcelona eventually settled into the game and were able to hit back through new recruit Ferran Torres.

In just his second game, the former Manchester City man perfectly curled in an effort from the top of the box well beyond Julen Agirrezabala.

The strike is Torres’ first for Barcelona, and the latest in his club career since September.

And there will be plenty more to come. Who will end up on top in this thrilling encounter?
